HOLD DOWN PLUG

Hold Down Plug in hole

HOLD DOWN PLUGS (HD) are used with Cementing and Wedging Bottom Packers (CWBP) or Cementing and Wedging Top Packers (CWTP) when high pressures are present below packer locations.

A cementing wedging bottom packer and hold down plug can be set together. Procedure is to pump packer down some 20 meters or more, insert hold down plug into head rod, then follow instructions for setting packer. When raising rods from packer, continue until rods are about 400mm above packer and set hold down plug as per instructions.
*** The above method cannot be used with the CWTP packer ***

A casing shoe bit or similar must be used to centre rod line, bit must be internally flush with rod and have some internal chamfer to aid seal on hold down plug.
